Note: Photo of movement shows "15 Jewels" engraved on
it.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. Elgin Grade 94 is exclusively 11 jewels. Occasionally, watches will be found with an after-market stamping indicating an incorrect jewel count. If you upload a photo of the movement to your collection, I would be happy to verify.
